Amidst a reception at the Westin Memphis Beale Street Gregory Britt was honored with the organization’s Chairman’s Award for Excellence in Preservation. Britt and his family have been the largest monetary contributors to the preservation and interpretation of the Parkers Crossroads Battlefield in Henderson County. The Britt family has deep connections to the battlefield — in addition to selling a 51-acre parcel now incorporated in the Parker’s Crossroads Battlefield Park, Mr. Britt’s father built and operated a successful business in the structure that today houses the park’s visitor center. Moreover, a financial contribution from Gregory Britt and family enabled the preservation, restoration and relocation of the McPeake Cabin to become the park’s focal point for living histories and other events
